Digital Universe?

[Zinjanthropos]

Don’t how or why that thought just popped into my head a few minutes ago. Was thinking if the universe works like some sort of cosmic operating system then perhaps it acts as a massive digital engine processor. So if things align correctly then it can generate RNA, DNA or whatever and produce a life form.

Upon thinking it over some more, an information universe might contain codes to spark life into existence. Universe might possibly be a a digital to biological converter of some kind. Starting to think that life isn’t going to be produced in a lab anytime soon. We need those codes. How you’d get them I don’t know but from what I just looked at, apparently we can do the reverse but can’t put Humpty-Dumpty together again. Biological to digital ok in a lab, that Ventner guy supposedly has done this, but biological to digital to biological not happening.

Thats a typical logical fallacy, you leave the toes out.

Yep! Snap of the fingers and there it is and there are those who see that as a fact. At least six days worth of finger snapping, some say.

Nah. Thanos snaps, God just speaks. And we don't talk about the toes. There's far too many fetishes for that.

Anthropomorphism aside, I guess someone forgot to tell Michaelangelo. Nice painting though.
